Chapter 546: Nothing to Do with Tang Siluo
No one paid any attention to Fatty. He wore a mournful expression, as if his heart had been broken. He clutched a large snow pear in one hand and bit into it with grief and indignation, as though the sky was falling. But who cared?
A team that could dig tunnel houses and live in them, with so many earth-type ability-user at their disposal—couldn’t they just build a villa complex of their own? Why pretend to be vulnerable? Still pretending!
"However, if they're only interested in the ability-users in Fatty's team, and then reluctantly accept them and poach them all, the only ones left are the elderly, the weak, the women, and the children. They'll be completely without protection and unable to fend for themselves." An Ran thought for a moment before voicing her concern.
Fatty stood beside her, gnawing on his pear, nodding repeatedly. Yes, yes, not a lie—only the goddess really stood on his side.
Luo Feifan and Zhan Lian exchanged a few words, both agreeing with An Ran’s judgment.
If they were to send Fatty and the others to a base, it had to be a good one with established rules—not one without humanity.
So, for now, it seemed best not to enter the base directly. If Lei Jiang and the others were also inside, they should definitely not go in.
And then there was Chen Chaofa. From what others had said, Luo Feifan felt his behavior was very similar to Lei Jiang’s. Perhaps he was Lei Jiang under another name.
“If this Chen Chaofa is Lei Jiang, then he must die.” It was Zhang Boxun who said this. His face was expressionless, but the hatred in his eyes was unshakable.
Zhao Ru sneered. "What? You still can’t let go of Miss Tang?"
“Axe’s death must be avenged.” Zhang Boxun remained unmoved by Zhao Ru’s taunt. He simply said, “Axe is dead. If for no other reason, I can’t let him die without justice.”
The implication was clear: Lei Jiang and Zhang Boxun’s feud was sealed for life. It had nothing to do with Tang Siluo.
Zhao Ru sneered again and fell silent.
Beside her, An Ran raised her hand, patted Zhao Ru’s shoulder, and gave her an affirming look.
So far, everything Zhao Ru had done against Zhang Boxun had been justified. Her great-aunt had died because Zhang Boxun failed to rescue her in time. Zhao Ru certainly had a grudge against him, but even so, she hadn’t done anything behind his back. For this very reason, An Ran trusted Zhao Ru’s actions.
As for her occasional barbed remarks, well, who couldn’t understand that? If your own kin died in front of you, who could stay calm and laugh and chat with the very person who might have saved them but chose not to?
Zhang Boxun understood this too, but he didn’t care. At that moment, a deep pain lingered in his handsome features. He looked up and said to Zhan Lian: “You’re planning to send someone to negotiate? I’ll go.”
Zhang Boxun always rushed to the front whenever there was danger. He had no fear, almost a desire to die. Even now, not knowing whether Lei Jiang was inside the base, he still volunteered to go.
Was he really not afraid that Lei Jiang would harm him again?
No—he even hoped to be harmed again. That would at least prove that their direction was correct. That Lei Jiang was indeed heading north and had entered the base.
"Then I’ll go with you." Luo Feifan nodded, deciding to accompany Zhang Boxun to contact the people at the base.
Zhan Lian and the others would stay with the main group to look after the rest.
